What Is the Political Action Committee (PAC)?

The
PAC is a voluntary nonprofit committee that is not affiliated with any
political party. The purpose of the OTAC PAC is to provide a voice for
occupational therapy practitioners in the State of California political
arena. The OTAC PAC accomplishes this purpose by providing financial support
to California legislative and constitutional officeholders and
candidates that benefit the public by improving and protecting issues
related to occupational therapy. The OTAC PAC assists occupational therapy
practitioners organizing themselves for more effective
political action in the State of California. The Committee is staffed by
volunteer OTAC members including the OTAC president, OTAC
president-elect or vice president, OTAC advocacy and government affairs chair, OTAC executive director, member(s)-at-large, and the PAC chair. The OTAC PAC chair is elected by members of the OTAC PAC Board.

Why Is It Important to Support the PAC?

California
officeholders, candidates, and legislators respond to the needs that
are brought before them. The profession of occupational therapy and
current and potential clients who need occupational therapy require a
voice to present concerns to California officeholders, candidates, and
legislators. The OTAC PAC provides a means to let policymakers know what we
do and who we serve.

Why Is this Relevant to You?

The profession of
occupational therapy needs to be actively involved in the political
arena to address issues related to the provision of services and clients
served. The OTAC PAC provides a means to bring those concerns to the
political arena, specifically to officeholders, candidates, and
legislators.
